Lectric XP Lite 2 Folding Electric Bike
The lightest folding e-bike under $1,000 — 46 lbs with a sleek design and 40+ mile range.
Our Review
The Lectric XP Lite 2 strips the XP4 down to essentials for a lighter, sleeker package. At 46 lbs (vs 65 for the XP4), it's significantly easier to carry and store. The 300W motor is adequate for flat terrain and gentle hills, and the 40+ mile range covers daily commuting. The folding mechanism is quick, and the standard tires (not fat) make it feel more like a regular bike. At $799, it's the lightest affordable folding e-bike available. Perfect for apartment dwellers and train commuters who need to carry their bike.
